Christmas Eve.

"DEAR Miss CARLINGFORD,
an few hours all England will ring
out the wish of peace on earth and
goodwill toward men, Is there to be
peace and goodwill between US? If you
will write the one little word yes l
will freely forgive you the want of feel

All the blood of her long dead ances-
tors rushed to the girls face as she read
what she considered, in her fe minine
waywardness, an insult to herself. Her
eyes flashed, and her voice trent led as
she said, with her little pearly teeth
tightly clenched, "He! forgive me, in
deed! as if cared for his forgiveness;
as if wanted ever to see him againl
Bell, give me, pencil quickly, I've lost
mine!" And snatching the gold case
from her friends hand, she tore the
blank half sheet off the unfortunate
letter, and making the stump of an old
tree serve as an impromptu table, she
wrote in clear, steady hand, "Sixes."
Then folding it, she fastened the paper
round with long blade of grass, and
said to the groom, Take this letter to
your master at once"
The man, touching his hat, remount-
ed his horse and instantly disappeared.
